It's pretty good and getting better. Take a look at http://www.transperth.wa.gov.au/.

Public transport is good, but life without a car would be pretty hard for you if you are staying in the burbs.

For a city of it's size, it's quite good. It's cheap too & in some cases, free.

It's very very good mate. Spotlessly clean and modern.

We lived in South Perth for 6 months without a car. Would spend around a quid to get over to the CBD on a ferry, buses were always on time, most air conditioned and very comfortable, and the trains were ten times better than the UK.

The CAT buses in central Perth are all free.

All times are GMT. The time now is 2:44 pm.
